: Can we get a sticky on gauge temps?

Just thinking that the 6.5 forum could use a sticky with a compilation of maximum safe temperatures and pressures you should see on stock (and aux) gauges. I've done a lot of searching around and found a real mismash of information and you need to search across various forums (and external sites) to find it all....and even then some info is not here.

It would seem what would be needed is a list of the following:

- Transmission (4L80E)
- Engine coolant temp
- Engine oil temp
- Engine oil pressure
- EGT (Pyro)
- Intake Air Temp
- Post liftpump PSI
- Boost
- Volts
- Differential / Transfer case temperature(s) (Less common, but possible gauges)


Perhaps we could all work on "filling in the blanks" (quote my post above and fill in the figures) and then once I have a comprehensive list (with details) I could make a new post and (if the mods see fit) it could be stickied for reference.

I don't really see it being stickied, but definitely linked from the FAQ thread. Once on the top and once or more in the detailed section.
